Topic: The buzz in Wisconsin (Read 1673 times)

Hi, I'm new here! I should be getting my first ever package of bees in April and I'm very excited about it. I hope that my kids will catch the bug (ha) and want to keep bees themselves. In the meantime, I'm counting on the girls to help in the garden. I got ONE zucchini last year. I didn't think that was possible, given the grocery bags I've seen around the office in the summer.

If you're anywhere nearby, please drop me a line. I need all the help I can get!

Welcome to the forum, cmonkey. By the way good pun. ;) But I do not know where to get the girls garden rakes that small. :-D Hope your kids do enjoy learning about the fascinating bees as you work them. Ask all of your questions and search this site for help, because there are a bunch of good people here, willing to help you.

I'm sure you'll find this forum to be an good source of information about bees & beekeeping. Be sure to check out the tutorials on the main Beemaster page!

I also recommend getting involved in a local beekeeping club. Clubs often offer beginning beekeeping classes and are great places to find mentors and get connected with nearby beeks:http://www.wihoney.com/LocalBeeClubs.html

cmonkey, welcome to our forum, great you found us. Good luck when you get your bees, you're gonna love them. Have that wonderful and greatest of days, with health. Cindi

There are strange things done in the midnight sun by the men who moil for gold. The Arctic trails have their secret tales that would make your blood run cold. The Northern Lights have seen queer sights, but the queerest they ever did see, what the night on the marge of Lake Lebarge, I cremated Sam McGee. Robert Service

Holy cow! This is about the 5th time I've said so this week, but the number of Wisconsinites on this forum is staggering!! Welcome from a fellow mother beek. To tell the truth, though, I have no idea where your town is. Can you give me a larger nearby town for reference?

Getting the kids interested in bees will probably be a cinch. (I had an abiding interest since I was 7 because of bees in the yard) - didn't get my own bees until last year though. Welcome to the forum.
